Euro 2012--France vs Ukraine: Players to watch out for…

Ukraine, the co-host of the Euro 2012, had a dream start to their tournament as they beat Sweden 2-1. Ukraine playing in their first Euro Cup looks like the team which can possibly go all the way, and they now would take on France today.

For France it is a must win game and for Ukraine this win would see them in the quarterfinals. Ukraine, the way they played in their last match, look like a team to beat and the French will have to get on the top of their game to win the match.

The match would see some top class players in action.

Here are some of the players to watch out for:

Ukraine:

Andriy Shevchenko
: Shevchenko is the highest goal scorer for Ukraine and has played with top clubs like AC Milan, Chelsea and Dynamo Kiev. One of the most prolific strikers of all times, the 3- year-old has been playing with the Ukraine since 1995 and has scored 46 goals in 106 appearances. Lot would depend on him if Ukraine has to win tonight. He was their hero in the last match and nothing can stop this Icon when he is on song.

Andriy Yarmolenko: He has been dubbed as the next ‘Shevchenko’. This young striker has already scored seven goals in 18 appearances and would hold the key for Ukraine.

France

Samir Nasri: He was arguably the best player for France in the last match and the Manchester City star would look to repeat his performance in today's crucial tie. He does hold the key for his team.

Frank Ribery: Ribery was not at his best in the last match but still gave England some tense moments. He would be one of the players to watch out for and Ukraine would have to prepare a strategy for him.
